Since you brought it up, wasn't it the Union guys who wouldn't take a pay cut to keep them open? IIRC it was no pay cut = no job!!!

Management tried to spin it that way, but Union folks already took more than one cut to pay and benefits while management received raises! When does it reach the point that you are no longer working for profit against your bills? How many pay and benefits would you take until work was a nonprofit or money losing venture? Remember management received some very heafty exit payments.

I'm not sure, but I think it will be a good lesson to the US population when we the "taxed class" get sick of our wages "stolen" and finally "shrug". Its about the same analogy if you think about it. Funny thing is, the party that supports the labor unions with one hand is the same party with their other hand in their back pocket taking hard earned money in the same way they demonize the business owners.... amazing hypocrisy!
